I subscribe to TV Guide, Biography, Entertainment Weekly and Readers' Digest. I also read Time, Newsweek, People, US, US News and World Report, Smithsonian, Discover, Woman's Day, Timeline, Taste of Home, CrossStitch and Ohio Magazine. I get those from the library. We get magazines from AAA, VFW, Eagles, AARP and bowling because we belong. I don't always read them, although lately the AARP magazine is getting better articles. When we are at my daughter's house I get the chance to read the funnies in Playboy. I'll look at the pictures, but there isn't much interest in those on my part. (I can't say the same for Mr. Gracie.) I also subscribe to two newspapers, one local and one so I can find out what's going on.

I always pilfer my friend's copies of National Geographic when he's done w/ them. I figure, if this whole "win-the-Pulitzer-and-write-for-the-New-Yorker" thing doesn't pan out (ha!), I can always work as a journalist for the NG, travel to all those exotic locales, and amass plenty of hairy tales to impress guys with.

I didn't even know there was a Flutist Quarterly magazine. What do they talk about in there? Are there pictures? Does it have glossy pages? I'm actually not being sarcastic or facetious. I'm genuinely curious.

When you're ten years old and a car drives by and splashes a puddle of water all over you, it's hard to decide if you should go to school like that or try to go home and change and probably be late. So while he was trying to decide, I drove by and splashed him again. - Jack Handey

My brothers and I are each subscribed to same exact surf magazines because we used to just to get one copy and when any of them would come in the mail, all 5 of us would tear each other apart trying to get it. My parents solved it by forcing us each to order our own magazines.

If you name a well-known magazine, my family is most likely subscribed to it. I know we get People, Us Weekly, Time, Newsweek, Vogue, Us News, In Touch, etc. but I never see them because the other 6 people in my family always seem to find them before I do. So if I ever want an article I like in a current magazine, I'll just go out and buy it because it saves me the aggrivation of searching everywhere for it. E.g. I know we get Rolling Stone but I searched the entire house looking for the one with Clay on the cover and couldn't find it so I solved the problem by going out and buying it. I've learned I can save a whole lot of my time and energy by doing that.
